  1. Pretty much anyone can do a 2-300 quid job though, 30’ birch takedown sort of things. Ladder, a few straps, Makita battery saw, brash away in a mate’s panel van, logs on the kerb.
  2. I've visited the test blocks in Wark and Thetford. Not knowingly seen any floribunda. What else did you plant there?
  3. Thanks. No but planning to. Take a fairly keen interest in it.
  4. Bang up a few pictures if you wouldn't mind please.
  5. Was the idea neglecta as an understorey and nitens as standards?
  6. What species of euc have you got?
  7. Yeah. Satisfying ish. More like relief. Means to an end.
  8. Everything’s heavy, the process is loud and slow, you’re constantly sharpening and the setting up to cut nice 90s is an abominable fiddle. Happy for you if you like it. It annoys the hell out of me and I sense doobin will feel the same pain.
  9. I promise you, you’ll hate it.
  10. Good o. I love it when a plan comes together. Parkers puts a rwd BMW 530i at 1540kg btw.
  11. It can lift more when it has more people standing on the back linkage. Hope that helps. Bill in the post.
  12. Plasterboard is fragile modern shit. Send it back and send up tongue and groove softwood on a push pull ski lift.Two Petzl Fixes, two alpine butterflies, two slings.
  13. Everything about that sounds expensive.
  14. You're such a fabulously transparent leaker. You're going to put a builder's car on top of his other car.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    High quality hound, low quality snack. For a relatively civilised people, the Norwegians amaze me when they eat those dreadful things. The mustard is lovely and would go just as well with sausages with a floor sweeping content under 90%.
  16. Or a rightmove listing, geograph photo etc if you fancy the detective work. Steve's appraisal of your client is accurate...

    Rednek Dek

    Or indeed sending me private messages on forums telling me a load of private information about some bloke called Dek, who I don't know. Couldn't make it up.

    Aye, I'm a stickler for that and likewise not amused if people pass my details on without asking first. The other thing in the same vein that I can't stand is people not checking they're speaking to the correct person on the telephone before disclosing confidential information.
  19. That’s pretty much exactly what I was going to say; does a two bed semi within ten miles of the base of operations cost £78-84k? The government didn’t allow house prices to rise btw. They caused them to.
  20. You’d think so (I did) but alas not. I tried hammers, levers and tying the hook to a tree and pulling the post with a mini loader before putting it on here.
  21. If I become willing to run a drill bit into it from that side, possibly yes. It’s hammered into a blind hole as far as I can tell.
  22. A fairly stout (14oz?) ball pein hammer head was my first throwbag. Rightly nervous to use it around houses.
  23. Pole and hook. As long as you can be bothered to carry. Mine’s collapsible, 4-12’. Post the rope above you.
